James Blake Live KEXP Session + New Tour Dates

James Blake‘s live KEXP session is proof he is an incredible performer in a live setting. If his voice doesn’t give you goosebumps, his lush and soul-stirring synths definitely will. He recently sat down with host Cheryl Waters of Seattle radio station KEXP for a short interview. He discusses what it’s been like to create a sophmore album, following the critical acclaim of his debut. He comes off as a very humble young lad, talking about how lucky he feels to have worked with the RZA and Brian Eno. His band also backed him on three songs off of his most recent album Overgrown as well as fan-favorite “The Wilhelm Scream.” The performances perfectly show off his skill of bending multiple genres. If you’ve never seen James Blake live, however–you’re in luck because Blake and band just announced a lengthy fall tour. His full KEXP interview and performances as well as tour dates can be seen below.
